Changing for Teachers

[Unregistered]

23 yrs in the biz...and I discontinued SA'rs. In all the past years.. I gave "teacher's kids" a no pay for school weeks off... because I had SA on those weeks off.....and made up the money easily with SAers. This fall I signed on 2 teacher's families...now I have 3 teachers (2 from each family)and one non teacher. So...I need to figure out to compensate for 5 weeks off of income lost from the teacher families.....because they actually STAY home with their kids...any ideas make it look like a rate hike?

Take your reg rate times five.
Ex. Mine would be.
135x5=675
675/52=13ish
New rate::
148 a week.
Or whatever your formula would be.

I don't have any ideas but I do like laundrymom's.

When I have teachers' kids, I charge from the time school starts till it ends for the summer. IOW they pay for all their school time off except summers. And they don't usually bring their child/ren.
